About this map

Alvin sits at the northern edge of the Nicolet National Forest, a community defined by its proximity to the glacial lakes and spring-fed headwaters of Forest County. The landscape is dominated by the dense canopy and wetlands of the national forest, where the North Branch Pine River and Mypad Creek navigate the glacial terrain. Genealogy researchers can locate the Lakeview Cem situated just west of the town center near May Lake.

A complex network of timber and forest roads, such as West Dam Road and Holt Road, provides access to numerous water features including Onimish Lake, Killborn Lake, and named springs like Charlie Otto Spring and Zieler Spring. This area reflects the modern management of a protected wilderness, balancing recreational trails like the Forest Co Snowmobile routes with the primary thoroughfare of Wisconsin 70 Trunk.
